They've a great source of reference when I've gone back to a particular place. One time, I lost one of my better ones on a British Airways flight. I turned the BA desk in London upside down trying to track my lost moleskin. No luck. I still miss all the remembered info I had in that one.Gypsy at Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17106152285952023602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6530193990089670986.post-82562366273577608992008-04-17T09:18:00.000-05:002008-04-17T09:18:00.000-05:00I also adore Moleskine notebooks.

I keep notes of where I've been, who I've met and save all stubs from train rides, art museums, etc. I don't know why I never thought to carry one with me on a normal day, though. I carry a huge notebook that ways a ton! I might have to rethink my system.

Noticing you need a pedicure IS the kind of female-y thing you should be worrying about now. I'm glad you did nothing of substance today. Thousands of miles away, I was copying you also. I know you don't sleep. Neither do I. We've got a problem with insomnia apparently you and I because when you comment on my blog in those early morning hours, I'm already awake and reading as you write. Always I think, WHAT is that girl doing being up at THIS HOUR? <BR/><BR/>Carissa: In a way, you are a leaping thought soul too. I'm glad you like my jumping around. I have to confess that when most people go wordless on this particular day, I get a kick out of just taking my brain out for a stroll. It's fun. And see? I intrinsically knew from your artsy personality that you were a food mixer and lipstick girl extraordinaire. Unfortunately, I've got none of your artistic talents but hey, at least I come close to your heights on the other two. <BR/><BR/>Suzanne: You know, until you actually applied the word fetish to my moleskin love affair, I hadn't really made the mental leap. It is just as you say however, a fetish through and through. I keep several in pristine condition just for the pleasure of knowing they are untouched and new. Lord knows why but it fits the fetish mindset. <BR/><BR/>Now that breakfast sandwich you describe, that sounds yu-mmy. Brownie points for you in the mixing department. <BR/><BR/>Will you be here for Noor's wedding?<BR/><BR/>Ron: Thanks. I'm pleased you praised my photographic skills. I don't trot out that Master's degree in photography that I have often but when I do, it pleases me no end that someone with your discerning taste can see how I made plain sky and boring leaves look fantastically eye-popping and strategically focused so as to give it the kind of allure no rock could ever possess. <BR/><BR/>Me too with regards to the books. I've been jokingly told that my library fines constitute a large chunk of their annual operating budget. Just my way of contributing I think. One would think they'd be somewhat more grateful and forgiving because of it though. Perhaps let me keep a little book here and there for gratitude's sake is all I'm saying...Gypsy at Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17106152285952023602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6530193990089670986.post-65375155417819416322008-04-16T23:36:00.000-05:002008-04-16T23:36:00.000-05:00What a great picture.

And, like you, I keep books from the library too long. I've decided that my late fees are a great way to donate to the library and keep the books a few extra days. But I like the library for a number of reasons - not the least of which is that they have more room to store books than I do. I think of it as my own private storage unit.Ron Davisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11972794876337195698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6530193990089670986.post-45971566380769172172008-04-16T23:15:00.000-05:002008-04-16T23:15:00.000-05:00Hi M,1) I'm a breakfast food mixer...eggs, potatoe...Hi M,<BR/><BR/>1) I'm a breakfast food mixer...eggs, potatoes, bacon, all together and piled on a bite of buttered english muffin. oh brother!<BR/><BR/>2.) for your moleskine fetish, you might enjoy this very cool blog which is a tribute to all things moleskine: <BR/>http://www.moleskinerie.com/<BR/><BR/>3) nuts, no. jellybeans...oh yea...<BR/><BR/>4) btw, i'm going to be in houston in may!<BR/><BR/>-s.suzanneelizabeths.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14304462740451230118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6530193990089670986.post-19859255220083083612008-04-16T19:27:00.000-05:002008-04-16T19:27:00.000-05:00oh yes... i am big on a "little bit of this& littl...oh yes... i am big on a "little bit of this& little bit of that" all together in one bit! i'm big on food mixing!<BR/><BR/>lipstick... a must! it is the one thing that can make one feel "put together"!<BR/><BR/>i love your all your "leaping thoughts"... they're fun! :)carissa... brown eyed foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01182175036422414669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6530193990089670986.post-84360469263998813432008-04-16T19:22:00.000-05:002008-04-16T19:22:00.000-05:00In my corner there was loveliness today too...and ...In my corner there was loveliness today too...and long in coming it felt nothing short of monumental. It was car washing, baseball mitt, short sleeve shirt, Oh my God I need a pedicure kind of weather and I got nothing of substance done today and it felt damn good. <BR/>And #5, me too. And lately I don't sleep at night either. So I'm cranky and my eyes are red rimmed and I wish I could make myself take a nap without feeling guilt.ccehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05867069792357056649noreply@blogger.com
